LOUISE DISTRAS with Bryan McPherson & Leon Walker

Louise DistrasFirst UK tour with the backing of her new band plus special guest Canada's Bryan McPherson who is fresh from opening up for The Dropkick Murphy's all over the world. Also featuring Leon Walker, graduate of Billy Bragg's Jail Guitar Doors project and now living in Bristol.

Bold, brainy and ballsy, Louise Distras represents nothing less than the rebirth of British punk; reinvented for a new generation. She’s taking the UK, Europe, Canada, Japan – and soon the USA – by storm. For a world grown exhausted of Simon Cowell’s X Factor synth-pop, there’s a raw emotional honesty to Brit punk sensation Louise Distras that might be too incandescent, all too real. Trumpeted as the natural successor to Billy Bragg, Joe Strummer, “the UK’s answer to Joan Jett” is “putting punk and protest back into the mainstream!” saysThe Guardian.
